RoK helps Can Tho build smart city

(VOV) -The Mekong Delta city of Can Tho has signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) with the Republic of Korea’s Soon Chun Hyang University to build a smart city.

Meeting with local leaders on December 7, Soon Chun Hyang University Vice President Kim Myoung Cheol said the model is business-friendly, with modern infrastructure which saves energy.

The smart system will include transport monitoring, natural disaster warnings, and management of public communication networks.

The smart transport system is designed to reduce the number of traffic police who have to deal directly with dangerous situations, and ease traffic accidents.

The construction of the smart city focuses on green, clean energy. Solar and wind energy will be utilised in manufacturing machines and equipment to mitigate greenhouse gas emissions and adapting to climate change.

Vice Chairwoman of the Municipal People’s Committee Vo Thi Hong Anh pledged to facilitate the implementation of the project as soon as possible, saying Can Tho will dispatch experts to the RoK to study smart city models in the host country.
